Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
In the United States, water departments of several cities and other organisations monitor drinking water and rivers used for water supply also for substances not regulated by the US EPA. As one member of these unregulated volatile organic substances, p-chlorotoluene has not been detected recently with a typical limit of detection of 0.5 µg/l, e.g. in the New River (California Regional Water Quality Control Board, 2003), the Trinity River Basin (Land et al., 1998), the Duck River (Duck River Utility Commission, 2003), or in the drinking water of Ocean City MD (Ocean City, 2002) and Phoenix AZ (City of Phoenix, 2000)
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
